This is not the first time Akshay Kumar came forward to help
the martyred soldiers. During Uri attack also the action star reportedly donated Rs. 80 lakhs.

He had said, “They are
decorated with a lot of medals and that is good. But I looked at their faces.
The honour was required for them but they need money too. You have to be
practical. I thought how about supporting them financially and that is when I
decided to do my bit for each family present there.”
